And my bird died yesterday, before I got back from vacation. Which kinda sucks, but I wasn't particularily attached to her. Her tailfeathers had finally just grown back in, too...

I'm back for good now. I won't be leaving Winona again this summer, except to go to La Crosse and possibly the State Fair. And I swear that I will start drawing/ uploading more pictures now that I actually have time. Although the printer/scanner is downstairs... and my lappy is all comfortable in my bedroom... Feh. More work. I definitely need something to distract me... like a job. Or a play. Or Driver's Ed. Or something.

Well, that's really all for now. Except...
I'm an upperclassman now >=3

Old news first - I got a tablet some time ago, for lending my father my computer when he broke his. Hurray! I loves it! I'll put some random stuff up soon, I promise.
New news now.
Hifrydital, for lack of a better name, is my new webcomic-y thing! Umm... it's about a girl... and some shapeshifting horse/men peoples named Harlequin and Raider that I absolutely love, and a goddess that I absolutely hate. So yeah, just watch for it! Whenever I actually get around to drawing it!

AND OMFG THE ANIME CONVENTION WAS AMAZING~~~~~

AND AND OMFG OMFG NEW FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST SEASON! It' streaming on the Funimation website starting tomorrow, LEGALLY subbed! 5 days after it's released in Japan! So watch it!

Anyways, for my 15th birthday present to myself, I went and bought a cobalt blue Nintendo DS and the Fullmetal Alchemist game. And have spent pretty much all day yesterday and most of today playing it... mostly, getting my butt whupped by Greed, Wrath, and Sloth. Oh yeah, we can't forget all the random dog/snake/whatever chimera things that pop out from nowhere. But it's fun! So yeah, now I'm totally broke and waiting for $20 to go get MarioKart, cuz that's fun, too.

And I thought it was time to update my journal.

What doez I draw?
Anything, really. Scenes, Lineart, colored pencil sketches, whatev'.
Animals, humans, fantasy creatures, anthro...

Mostly, I'll just do trades.
Occasionally, I'll open up for some free Gift Art! Woot!
If you're a member of the Vulpine Imperium, and I'm doing a pic of your VI character, I charge however many guilders you think the drawing's worth.

Oh, yeah, and I'm 15 now. Scary, huh?

Kels, Rhon, and then Jessi and Bead, if I still needed to talk, but other than that, nobody really.

If someone liked you right now, would you want them to tell you?
Ummmm. I guess? It'd be a bit awkward, though, considering the number that already like me.

Do you prefer to take showers at night or in the morning?
Night, even though I look like John Lennon the next morning.

Yes.... not everything was good though.

Umm. REALLY hard - not recently. Last laugh - last night, while Go-Karting.

Do you believe that if you want something bad enough you'll get it?
HAH. No. Dammit, I WANNA FLY!

Preps, yeah. And Barry. And my sister.


Who was the last person of the oppisite sex you were in a car ride with?
The camp's high school choir director, Rolf.


Do you cry a lot?
Not really. I really need to now, but I'm sitting in a public room at a Bible camp.... awkward place to start bawling your eyes out.

Whats on your mind?
Martin. Friends. Loneliness. Curfew at 11.


Anyone upset you lately?
Martin.

Mother: "I need more time to think about these things. Did you check upstairs?"
So I was running all over the house looking for this thing, and my dad remembers that he probably sold it along with the old desktop computer when we moved. But then I found the connector thingy for it in a drawer upstairs. So I'mma keep looking becaue I -know- I saw it in this house at one point, and I want it >.<

But my camera came in, finally! Hooray!
I'm getting a $200 digital camera from Herberger's for $50, as advertised about a month ago in the newspaper. And I went to Herberger's, and they had stocked about 10 of those cameras, so of course they were all gone. But the new shipment -finally- came in, so I'll be getting a nice new camera soon, and that will make me very happy.

I'd be far happier if I could find the tablet, though... or find one for really cheap somewhere.
